THE hottest ticket in town has just arrived at The Palace Theatre in Redditch.

Bringing On Back The 60s, starring the new amen corner with very special guests 60s icons Mike d’Abo and Chris Farlowe, is coming to the town in June.

This fast moving show is a must for lovers of 60s music.

In 1966 Mike d’Abo was the only one man who could fill Paul Jones' shoes as front man for Manfred Mann.

Already attracting attention with his group, A Band Of Angels, Mike was thrust into a wider limelight with the Manfreds and the well-oiled hit machine kept rolling on.

Just Like A Woman, Semi-Detached Suburban Mr James, and Mighty Quinn were just three of the string of hits with the 'new boy' in the line-up.

And, like his predecessor, Mike's career after the disbanding of the Manfreds in 1969 lost none of its momentum.

He'd already proved his impressive skill as a songwriter by composing Build Me Up Buttercup for The Foundations, and Handbags and Gladrags, a massive hit for Chris Farlowe.

Also welcome to the stage Chris who will deliver to you, Out Of Time, Let The Heartaches Begin, and of course Handbags And Gladrags

Chris was the 60s star to out sell everybody to become number one for 13 weeks with Out Of Time when England won the world cup in 1966.

A spokesman from the theatre said: "Sing and dance, as they perform two hours of million selling hit’s from the most prolific decade in musical history that was the 1960s. This is a show not to be missed."

The show is on Friday, June 2 starting at 7.30pm.
